Subject: [TN] NTC Friday Element Quiz - the Question
Hi folks - Here is the Friday Element Quiz Question (a day late):
The Question:
This element is essential for all species. This element makes up 0.05%of the red ant's body weight. This element was found in human blood in 1830.
In Victorian times a pharmaceutical solution containing this element was prescribed for halitosis and sore throats despite being highly dangerous if swallowed. About 95% of this element's production is used as an metal alloy strengthening addition. What element is being described?
